Hi all, i'm sick off carrying rods, tripods beach shelter etc 1/2 mile down beach at night, I was wondering whats the best holdall to carry all the gear in one, the Veals Quiver Holdall looks good value and apparently has a section for your beach shelter, anyone used the veals or titan one??

i use the titan and it has done me for a number of years though the bottom pocket to hold the bottom of the tripod is now starting to tear.mustad one is fairly cheap.

i use a mustad one myself but had a titan before that ,not much difference between them and they both do the same job.so i would go for the one i got the cheapest.

I have been using an Ian Golds holdall for the last three monts they are great you can get your beach buddy in and it has a pocket for your tripod. It is very robust and has a very strong bottom it should last for ever.I think most of the tackle shops stock them including swords hardware who have a good stock of fishing tackle and frozen bait.

If you want to get rods, tripod etc all in one bag, have you looked at a ski bag? There long enough and if they can take a pair of skis, then you'll probably get most of your stuff in....

Like Paul Mason says, the Ian Golds rod carrier is the best on the market, they come in 2 sizes, both have a zip down the side so you place your rod inside instead of ramming it in (no broken guides) the large one will carry a tripod on the outside any beach shelter and at least 4 rods inside, it has a drain hole in the bottom to let any water or sand escape too.

Fully lined with duel handles and a padded shoulder strap, got to be great value for money.
